Nothing lasts forever.

It's a law of the universe.

Your job.
Your home.
Your friends.
Your words.
Your dreams.
Your love.
Your life.

Everything.

Everything ends one day.

So today, rejoice in the fulfilling.

Write. Sing. Dance. Laugh. Love.

Find your joy, and revel in it.

Breathe it in. You're only here one time. It's a miracle you're reading this right now. Do you realize all the circumstances that had to come together for you to be reading these words? That you - yes, you - could be that one in a million person who reads this, and is suddenly reminded of the thing they love the most... and in their joy, they contribute to the perfection of the universe?

It's kind of overwhelming when you think about it that way, isn't it?

Nothing lasts forever, man. Love while you can.

Forget everything else.

Wow, you are speaking directly to me. I have been away from blogs and my writing for a few months (three deaths in my family) & your words are poignant and wise. Nothing last forever & I have made a decision to live every day as if it could be my last and to be grateful for everyday and every encounter. Thank you.
